"One of my favourite quotes by Socrates talks about the meaning of life and it's to know oneself."
We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Emma Roche to the How to Thrive podcast this week, a philosophically-informed coach and lawyer who combines 3,000-year-old wisdom with modern coaching practices.
Her approach is fascinating, but you may be wondering where the connection is between ancient philosophy and thriving in today's professional world.
Emma, who helps professionals discover their authentic selves beyond their job titles, explains it perfectly: "It's coaching but with a framework... grounded basically in unveiling who we are."
We discuss the art of Socratic questioning, separating your role from your identity, and Emma reveals why thinking time should be as habitual as exercise.

"Atomic Habits" by James Clear
